The Swiss designer created a lamp series for Knoll international in 1959 and was commissioned with numerous prestigious large-scale-projects including the Luzern train station restaurant, the aula of the Van Leer-foundation in Jerusalem, for the theatre and art center Luzern and the theatre Zurich. He received the art price of the city Luzern. Both H. Fillekes and Gino Sarfatti show resemblances to the designs.
